Twitter Battle Between Jonah Hill and Don Lemon

November 9, 2012

It’s been a while since there was a good celebrity battle–I think it was Rosie against whoever–so this one is wacky and kind of fun, while shedding light on whether certain star behavior is rude or not.

First CNN’s Don Lemon tweeted:

“Said hi to jonah hill in hotel. Think he thought I was bellman. Didn’t know his name till bellman told me. A lesson to always be kind.”

Jonah Hill then replied:

“I said hi. what do you want me to do move in with you? I was in a hurry. Didn’t realize you were a 12 year old girl. Peace.

Then came Lemon:

“Hardly. You’re not my type. But I know rude. And u were.”

Then Jonah:

“I walked out of the restroom and found you waiting for me. Shook hands, said hi and was on my way. Sorry if you found that rude.”

I’ve been on both sides of this kind of contretemps and can understand each party’s point of view (though I’d definitely know Jonah Hill’s name–then again, I’d also be thrilled if someone said hello).
